Us and their laws, they literally will always find ways to take control and milk others.

 I never knew this guy but I can say he really did mess up trying to act smart against the law even when he was having these numbers of bitcoins.

Though if he was really someone who really believes in bitcoin and stand to keep his nickname “Bitcoin Jesus ” in truth then he will still be a HODLer and the quantities of bitcoin he would have accumulated or still be having now will be enough for him to pay the $50m fine without him going bankrupt.

The US government will be happy now, since they are enjoying from the fact that bitcoin is the world best store of value from thousands of dollars to now millions of dollars

Davidvictorson, Musa Mohamed, Oshosondy Thanks for the reply which is helpful in being safe online but you all miss the essence of this post which is

My advice Is be careful of how you react to information you got from Twitter (X), especially if it's about financial investment or possibly avoid getting info from Twitter(X) since this is now becoming a common thing on Twitter yearly.

 in fact I would have prefer you being cautious more of anything about your privacy and finance in any platform or social media because we can never disrupt the fact that such accounts might be hacked and we did have similar issues about this here, last year were by many users claimed they never asked for a loan, stating their account has been compromised and in order to avoid this, it is required for anyone applying for loan to sign a message with their bitcoin address to prove their authenticity.

You are very much correct bro, but am not quite certain when you are talking of the percentage involved....
What Op Is talking about here is that we should always read the terms and conditions of anything we do generally and this is true because many have suffered greatly from this ignorance even outside the crypto space. So we have to always take our time to know the terms and conditions of anything we buy or do because prevention is better than sorry


-snip- because I have experience a crazy and stupid terms  and conditions from most of this p2p merchant when doing p2p transaction, you will see a merchant that will say that two hundred naira will be deducted from the original money he wanted to pay as bank charges, if he is buying from you, so due to the fact that most people don't actually read terms and conditions on most of this adds the merchant put up, they will later start having problem with the merchant, and to tell you the truth, the merchant will always win the case when the issue is being settled by customer support, because his terms and conditions were  written down clearly already before the trade was opened, so they believed that you agreed to it, so in essence of all this, it's very very important to read terms and conditions of most of this merchant when doing p2p transaction, because most of them are just crazy, someone will boldly say that he wouldn't release or pay if your phone number is not submitted to him, so he can call, as if it's a compulsory thing, so we should be very careful with terms and conditions generally.

Actually bro your reply is great and I have also experienced it were merchant cut some amount as fee charges which is actually annoying to me, though once I see something of such I moved to another merchant or else you go with such term if you fail to see it earlier but please can you try give some space in your text since it's hard to read like this




144  Other / Off-topic / Be cautious of Account Hacked on social medias on: April 30, 2024, 04:24:32 AM
Anyone who uses X(formerly Twitter) often or usually get updated about security news may have noticed that there have been high profiles X accounts that has been compromised and this include
These high profiles X accounts fell victim of through majorly through phishing scam and also it's now obvious that majority of these high profiles don't use 2FA base on report from Twitter (X) team.

These phishing scam, which is the most common and we can say most dangerous because malicious actors has so many ways to victimize others with.

While these might just last for a short time, others may already been victimize before they become aware such account is already compromise and this were use to target crypto investors.

My advice Is be careful of how you react to information you got from Twitter (X), especially if it's about financial investment or possibly avoid getting info from Twitter(X) since this is now becoming a common thing on Twitter yearly.

 in fact I would have prefer you being cautious more of anything about your privacy and finance in any platform or social media because we can never disrupt the fact that such accounts might be hacked and we did have similar issues about this here, last year were by many users claimed they never asked for a loan, stating their account has been compromised and in order to avoid this, it is required for anyone applying for loan to sign a message with their bitcoin address to prove their authenticity.

Also it's advisable to use a 2FA if such platform or social media accepts it especially when you know you are among the top profile there.

Arsenal lacks a lot of qualities, would you say?  
I don't think Arsenal lack alot of qualities players rather they are just simply inconsistent and their recent form in the EPL is a living proof, I know many including me did write them off as league contenders earlier this year because of their form but now they were able to bounce back and also the only league contenders against Manchester city


and I know Manchester city is fighting seriously, and I know how much effort is going to be paid.  Clubs like Sheffield are actually meant to be respected because they always concede goals. and even with Salah, Liverpool is still finding it difficult to maintain there balance in the Premier League. and Arsenal will not be able to maintain that position, very soon we are going to the top.  
Actually I think it's obvious Liverpool is out already, now it's just a two horse race and I will not disrupt the fact that Gunners may win the league tittle after over a decade but just like I do say recently, Man city more likely will win the league since they are usually consistent during the season ending rather than the other league contenders

I hope they do, this is not your average casino where they offer sign up bonus to try the platform but with the minimum amount to use the platform like 1 MATIC they can try the system, and from there the player can increase their bets, let's admit it not all players are alike some are here to make money and some are here to test the platform and some are here just to enjoy the game.
And with the minimum bet everyone is included, I'm looking forward to this.
This is true and I think this would be better it compensate for the sign up bonus and made the platform more unique since I haven't seen any casino having this game and allows such low amounts.
1 matic works better for testing while they might add other third-party aside from using Changely for swapping other coins to Matic or maybe limit the minimum swapping quantity of these coins.

We have noted the feedback from the bitcointalk community, We have reported it to our team. We are waiting for goodnews from our main management and of course we need time until this brilliant idea can be implemented

Best Regards,

Peter
I'm glad you took our suggestion into consideration, I really hope they are implemented though it's obvious it will take time but as long as some of these are at least implemented, there will be a more positive growth.

147  Economy / Speculation / Re: When will the real bull run begin? on: April 29, 2024, 02:35:07 PM
I was buying all along the bottom of the bear market so current prices do not interest me too much as I got in a lot lower so I am just waiting to take profits.
Actually this is a bad idea, the price you may be interested again to buy more btc may never come ever again, just continue to buy because in a actual fact we don't know when bitcoin price will rise or drop but the only thing that makes most not bother about the price is from the fact that we know bitcoin is currently the world best store of value and if we HODL we will earn more in the long run.

Also bitcoin price movement this year before halving is different from the previous halving since we got to a new ATH before this halving, while others notably me were waiting for the dip before this year halving to buy btc, I miss it because I didn't even notice when the dip occurs since I wanted more price drop which was disappointing. I advise you continue to buy and HODL in order to make the best out of every market seasons.

It’s a little weird but the negativity I feel in the market right now is what I needed to finally flip to being irrationally bullish. I think this is a great time to buy and plenty of people will sell to raise cash now with the current global economy, but those who stick with it and wait another year will be handsomely rewarded for their faith.
To be frank, since I became this knowledgeable about bitcoin I always love it when things like this happens since alot will sell and bitcoin price dip and I can get more when I buy from it while then these people will actually think they made the right choice until they miss the bull.

149  Local / Politics and society (Naija) / Re: Jamb 18 years benchmark for admission, what's your take? on: April 29, 2024, 01:45:16 PM
We know of recent, a lot of underage student are now the majority of those in the higher institutions with most of them in there 16 to 21years who most times aren't emotionally strong enough to copping with what's optiable in the tertiary institution but then, some others do well while they are still young and haven't started facing lot's of distractions and responsibilities that can potentially affect There studies.
I will say this is completely wrong with the current state of the country, it's even more difficult for the older ones since parents/guardians can actually see them as someone that can cope because of their age whereas they are suffering in school. Also what economical hardship as a 16-21 years old student has not seen even when living with parents though cost of living in school is more difficult but what kind of hardships have we all no to endured because of bad leadership.

To be frank this shows how derailing their thinking, like common what century is this, aside this we ought to be moving forward and not backward. In other countries an 18 year is already a bsc degree holder and now they want to turn such to a jambite.

These people seize to stop from amazing us with their foolish acts and laws. I wondef if they would support this if their children actually schooled in Nigeria

To enter university is wahala. If you get to the university, they will use strikes to delay you. You may even experience 3 or 6 months strike. You will graduate and be unemployed or underemployed. I do not know people that can be stupid to make this stupid laws as if they do not have children or grandchildren.

They should continue to frustrate Nigerians with their foolish laws.
Actually the strike is not even the worst but the fact that some of this public universities are disappointing in how examinations are being carried out and also how results are being processed, how the lecturals acts and others.
This actually discourage the students more, one put effort to get good results but the school doesn't make it easy by giving a deserving result

With last night's win Arsenal are one point ahead of Manchester City but City has one league remaining, this will be a serious title fight for Pep Guardiolla and his team, considering that Arteta also doesn't want to be said to be just a shadow of City this time or this year. Arsenal is ready to destroy City to win the Premier League title.

The situation remains the same as before and indeed it will continue to be the case likely until the end of the season. Arsenal are still trying to maintain their performance so that they continue to maintain their hopes of being able to stand as champions this season, it's just that with the conditions that occur now, especially the dominance carried out by Manchester City towards the end of this season and Arsenal's schedule which is still quite difficult because their opponents are not easy, this makes Arsenal inevitably have to remain consistent until the end of the season and hope Manchester City experience performance problems in easy matches because looking at the current schedule Manchester City has an easier schedule than Arsenal.

There are still 3 matches left for Arsenal and 4 matches for Manchester City so by looking at this, one defeat is already a sign of the club giving up at the end of the season.

Arsenal had been impressive against 2 of the 3 biggest team that we thought would give them a difficult game which was Chelsea and Tottenham and now they only have to bother more about Manchester united while Man City still have Tottenham which might determine the league champion

They already have their own merit source shahzadafzal
Since they already have one active merit source in their local board, I don't think it's needed when the quality is so-so.
OH I literally didn't know this, thanks but another question that would matter here is what's the amounts of merit allocated to shahzadafzal monthly. This is important because even in Nigeria we have our own merit source but his allocation is limited now but thankfully we have some merit sources who also support us there

In regards to this [CHARTS] Brief monthly overview of the local boards activity I can see you're among The top posters in your LB while I'm not really familiar with you also but I think as long as you are doing a good job at your LB, your LB members will totally support you and this will increase your chances.

I made a withdrawal to my address saved in my profile, but apparently it has been redirected to another address.
I even received the payment confirmation email, indicating the BTC address, which is not mine.
I lost 3000 USD for this reason, I have all the evidence if necessary to show it.

- How "apparently" if "payment confirmation email, indicating the BTC address, which is not mine." Go after the owner of that address before naming, right?
Note:
Do you know that certain addons can change the address during a simple copy/paste?
Man device as been affected by Keyboard malware though it could be worst like Trojan and instead of trying to fix this, he still blame Freebitcoin for this even when he saw a wallet address different from his, he still went to opt for it. This shows how careless this user is online, especially since this is not the first time he is criticising Freebitcoin base on this reply here

154  Local / Nigeria (Naija) / Re: Dangote: Forex shortage delays crude supplies on: April 27, 2024, 08:52:20 AM

-snip-

One of the reasons is because of crude oil production challenges in Nigeria.

Maybe these are  also part of the reasons: https://www.nairaland.com/7989514/5-reasons-aliko-dangote-sourcing

Inseurity is becoming worst as economy becomes more tough, communities in the Niger delta continues to fight, youth going to steal crude oil which ends many life's.

Actually is not surprising to see Nigeria dropped to second in crude oil production with this and Dangote idea  for import is good especially since it ensures consistency in production.

This is one of the ways to know that the price of naira supposed to have been depreciated than what it currently is. Or the government do not want Dangote refinery to be importing crude oil from outside Nigeria?
I can say the government is against Dangote because we saw the recent fluctuation in naira to dollar price, it's an obvious manipulations by the government but I don't know why they will actually prefer this

Will Liverpool lose points in this match? I do not think so. They have already lost a lot of points for a few weeks and are far behind in the championship race.
The painful defeats experienced by Liverpool previously certainly made Klopp even more tense and stressed. Moreover, this is his last season at Liverpool. So, for this match against West Ham, I am sure that Klopp and his squad will be much better prepared and motivated to win. If these players are still stressed by the results of previous matches, then this will actually disrupt their performance. This is where the professionalism of the players comes into play. They shouldn't have done badly, especially since the season is still continuing and the competition is very close with the top clubs in the EPL.
Actually don't expect much from Liverpool this season again because they will shockingly disappoint you just like we saw against Crystal Palace, Atlanta and Everton. I once thought they will actually win the league, showing drive to win all matches against all odd but surprising now the team is disappointing to me. Though the only reason I think they might win is from the fact that West Ham as also not been stable but let's see how these two inconsistent team play against each other tomorrow

Manchester City next two matches looks to sure to be won by them but I'm not sure for Arsenal, Bournemouth might looks easy but I'm not sure if it was going to be easy with Tottenham considering the fact that they are also in the tournament to get above the top 4 standing. However, if Arsenal should beat Tottenham, the next team they need to focus will be Manchester and if that goes through, they might smell the Premier League title.
Man City should not experience many obstacles regarding the next few matches in the future. Because, their opponents are respectively: Nottm Forest, Wolves, and also Fulham. So, the chances of Man City getting the full 3 points are very high in the next three matches. So that means Man City will continue to remain at the top of the EPL.
I think they might actually have more difficulty against Nottm forest since they are still fighting against relegation but still yet I think we might not see city dropping points now till the season end while the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool more likely especially Arsenal vs Manchester united match

What I supposed caused the delay in processing that withdrawal request is possibly due to the high fees on the bitcoin blockchain, may freebitco was waiting to see if the fees will calm down a bit at the time the withdrawal request was placed.

Actually this is what I thought was the problem because even before the halving which was when Marhy91 made a withdrawal, Mempool was already congested and after  the halving things became worst but it's getting better and I think before this coming week ends he will get it.
@Marhy91, sorry for the bad customer service but I believe when TheQuin comes online he will definitely speak about this
158  Economy / Gambling discussion / Re: Premier League Prediction Thread 2023/2024 on: April 25, 2024, 08:37:58 PM

Liverpool's defeat to Crystal Palace was really unexpected and so the odds on Crystal Palace's victory seemed to be more than 10, but Everton is a crucial opponent for Liverpool and I understand now Everton fans can say that in the season 2023/2024 Liverpool lost the chance for the championship at Goodison Park.

I don't really think they will actually be thinking of it except City actually do dropped points because to their lost to Crystal Palace and draw to Manchester united sealed their fate, I overestimated them speaking about them being among title contenders whereas Arsenal is even doing alot better now than them. Though both teams are disappointing to me.


 Man city have proven without doubt that Brighton are no match for them and what a way to show it. Brighton started the game quite well, in fact would have opened the scoring with a Danny Welbeck shot in the 4th minutes had it been packed with power. In the course of the game, city found their rhythm and started taking control and Brighton lost control over the game when KDB scored the first goal. One annoying thing Brighton kept on doing was building from the back, knowing fully well that that's not their strong suit. When playing against a team like man city, there's no room for mistake of leaving your defense open because you'd get punished for it.
I don't see Brighton coming back from this loss and if anything Man city will look to add more goals so arsenal should just hope that man city lose their next game if they want a chance at the title.

73 minutes man city 4 Brighton nil, some actually thought These guys will make things difficult for City but I guessed we can see the difference between City and Liverpool now.
I think Foden might just be the best player of the season for City or maybe not but he might just be the April player of the  month.

This is one significant draw back of closed source software while I don't think the open sources anti virus are better than the close source since majority tends to use the closed source Anti-Virus.
Anything close source software should not be trusted because you do not know what the code it is made up of. You do not know if the code has malware that its developers intentionally included before they are selling it or people downloading it. I do not think this should be about open or close source software but rather than not to be using or truth antivirus. Antimalware can not be trusted. The best you can do to your device is to avoid and making sure that malware will not get installed. This is better than to depend on antivirus or antimalware. What that can be done to avoid these malware are simple. Also that huge amount of coins should be stored on addresses of a cold wallet.
Actually this is what I'm currently doing, I don't use any anti-virus at the moment though I was once using it but immediately I switched to Linux, I just stopped.

I did stopped not mainly because I switched to Linux but just that I saw it wasn't a necessary protective measure against malware and the likes.

It’s often said the longer the price stays in a tight range, the more explosive the breakout will be when it happens.
We could bounce around $60,000 - $70,000 for months but when all liquidity is taken in that range and day traders are unprepared we will pump hard.

Patient HODLING, $100,000 will happen when you least expect it.
This is true and that's why HODLers has been happy since the beginning of the year while billions has already been liquidated since the beginning of the year, just for today dip https://www.google.com/amp/s/decrypt.co/228029/bitcoin-price-slips-below-64000-as-209-million-in-crypto-longs-liquidated%3famp=1
